Welcome to Maz World – home of author Maz Evans and her Story Stew!

I love writing and I love teaching others to write. Whether you want to enjoy my books or you'd like me to visit your school or festival I would love to cook up some stories with you.

Everyone can write stories. That's right. Everyone. Especially you. Creative writing isn't a mystical art - it is a science with a bit of magic thrown in. With the right tools, everyone can write a good story. You might not be Dickens. But you won't be a right Charlie either.

Testimonials

Maz has served up her creative writing chaos at primary schools and literary festivals around the country - and the critics have loved it... more testimonials

"A huge thanks for coming in to Heathlands today. All of the staff I've spoken to were really impressed with the assembly (mainly because it involved ridiculing me!) and we are so grateful for the way in which you engaged the children in our classes. Also, for how you were willing to give each child so much of your time. They loved your energy, passion and enthusiasm. All of the children now have a clear structure to begin drafting their stories and that is testament to your fantastic workshop."

Heathlands Primary, Jan 2018

"We have had the absolute pleasure and privilege of Maz visiting our school for a whole day, and I can say she was truly an inspiration for all our children and teachers. It was a memorable occasion that will stay with us as a school for years to come. Her humorous, energetic style had the children hooked from the minute she walked through the door. Her story stew is a simple, yet effective, way to hook children into writing stories, and is something that our children are using to write their own stories- they are brimming with ideas. Maz took the time to speak to our children one to one, developing confidence in even the most reluctant writer; this really meant a lot to them . I cannot recommend Maz highly enough- book her NOW!"

R L Hughes Primary, Jan 2018

"We were blessed to have a visit from Maz in January 2018. Her whole-school assembly was both inspiring and entertaining, with a bit of teacher-bashing (literally!) thrown in for good measure! Several of the staff described it as 'the best author assembly we've ever had'. Maz’s energy, enthusiasm and encouragement in her 'Story Stew' workshop left the year 5 children buzzing with self-belief in their writing capabilities, using a simple but memorable recipe for story-writing. It was a truly wonderful day which will be remembered for a long, long time. Maz spreads a little magic which lingers long after she's left the building. If you get the chance to have her visit your school, snap it up."
